Back Bay Smoke-Out: Condo Owner Sues Over Secondhand Smoke
Sure, police have arrested Phillip Markoff, the alleged Craigslist killer, but the story of a BU medical student turned alleged prostitute killer still has legs. What does an enterprising journalist do to find out more about the Craigslist killer and his life? Turn to Missed Connections, naturally.
Two posts have appeared on Craigslist from a journalist desperate to get in touch with Markoff's fiancee and his friends. It's 2009, and nothing on the internet should squick us out anymore. But hunting down the friends of a man who stands accused of hunting down sex workers by using the same classifieds board? That sort of does the trick, if only because it's so brazenly lazy.
Missed Connections? We think you're doing it wrong.

i will admit i searched facebook for him to see if his profile had anything interesting. maybe he's more of a myspace type.
Never knew squick was a word. Thanks for the info.
